Subject: as read by Stephen Hawking :(
just a joke. but if you know stephen hawking and how he communicates, than you can decide for yourself whether you can tolerate this. Personally, its not my cup of tea

Subject: Robot voice or How not to hear a great book.
Why are commentators more or less ignoring the elephant in the room on this particular "gift"? If, like most people, you grow impatient at hearing thirty seconds of robot-tone recorded messages when you call the bank for your balance, this will have you in a straitjacket by the end of page one. Horrible, awful, ridiculous.

Subject: Long and Boring
This is really one long and boring read. I only got interested at the end when they started talking about the early Christian Church.

This may be a gift, but all the commentary on commentary and boring style leave you asleep in a short time.
